    You're notinterrupting Victoria sponge image Garden maidens plants all look perfect for the bees image I really admire the gardeners who have suchbeautiful front gardens as well as back, they must be such hard workers. I just don't have that energy! Wish I did image

    Bekkie that sounds lovely but big plan! Don't think you will ever go off roses, no one could image Couldnt you have mix of colours? Or prefer one?

    You could plant it up for all seasons in different colours?

    Spring bulbs, roses and then something after? Or put annuals between the roses to change the colour scheme?

    Oh ngcards they are lovely pics and love the deep rich colours

    With the bunnys did you grow from seed yourself? I ask because I brought couple of trays of white ones and nothing like yours size wise and the ones I put in the ground the snails or slugs ate over night! Ones in pots ok but nothing great image

    See, thats the perfect example, one colour or a scheme based on one colour is very striking- lovely pics NGCARDS!

    I had a pink fad a few years back, but have gone off it, feel really guilty every time i look at rose brother cadfael, because i really dont like it! Im hoping if i leave it there long enough, i will have another pink fad! image
